Abstract
We define Hamilton-De Donder systems on a dual jet bundle, and show that they are variational in a general sense. We explore the relationship between these systems and Ehresmann connections. We also consider regularity conditions for such systems and show that, when regular, they arise from Lagrangian systems on the original jet bundle.
